WORD ON THE STREET
ALISON DE LUCCA
Executive Director, Southern California Access Network
“I had a seamless experience working with Jessica on uCANRise, a new student advocacy community of practice. She joined the project at just the right time that we needed her strategic insight and ability to distill complex ideas. She is an outstanding collaborator and communicator who uses a high level of diplomacy working with many partners, and effortlessly moves projects forward. And she’s so easy to work with – I’d do it again and again.”
LYNNE LEE
Executive Vice President, Coaching Corps
“I was lucky to work side-by-side with Jessica at a time when we had limited capacity. She is a thoughtful leader and strategist who is highly skilled at working across different functions and personalities within an organization, from the board of directors to field staff. She ran multiple campaigns and projects for us, and elevated awareness of our organization’s main initiatives to new heights. If you’re looking for a dedicated and flexible leader and doer who doesn’t take herself too seriously, you won’t regret working with Jessica.”
CAROLINE AVAKIAN
Emmy-nominated TV correspondent; Director of Strategic Communications at Ballot Initiative Strategy Center
“It was a pleasure to work with Jessica. She is extremely smart, analytical, detail-oriented and creative. I have found her to be a great adviser to me, bringing a high level of experience, guidance and great attitude to her work with us. Jessica was also very thorough in all her deliverables and communications with us.”
KEVIN SLATTERY
National Corporate Communications, Mental Health & Wellness,
Kaiser Permanente
“I had the great fortune of meeting Jessica through a collaboration with Fenton’s San Francisco office where she led media campaigns, facilitated connections within the corporate social responsibility sector, and added capacity for our small international community development team within our corporate engagement initiatives. I couldn’t have asked for a more aligned and connected consultant with her superior communications skills and her ‘can do’ attitude.”
JACOB MARTINEZ
Founder & CEO, Digital NEST
“The Digital NEST team has partnered with Jessica for nearly two years. In that time, she’s helped push our thinking around integrated communications and thought leadership. She brings strategy and fresh new ideas to each conversation, while also being very skilled at doing the work. From writing and communications planning to navigating business challenges and communicating with the board, we’re in a better position having worked with Jessica.”
MICHELLE RHONE-COLLINS
CEO, LIFT, Inc.
“Jessica was referred to LIFT to help us create a communications roadmap. What she delivered was far beyond our expectations. She took the time to understand the organization from the inside out. Her recommendations were both revelatory and pragmatic - we are seeing the results. Her heart-forward approach combined with years of expertise makes her a pleasure to work with.”
